Cashflow from employment

In some cases, continuing development in a person's chosen field can become fruitless due to changes in the workforce.

These days, many people's jobs are made redundant as different efficiencies emerge (such as new machinery), requiring a reduced number of workers.

Similarly, goods and services once under high demand can become less required and desired by consumers, such as typewriters and cassette players.

For the many employees who have, or will have their positions made redundant, re-training in new areas can create a new "lease of life".
